Super chapter - loved the Buffy-Joyce meeting and your treatment of the Buffy Bot is perfect.

You are making me really like the Bot in this fic! I love how Spike spoke to her while telling her to deactivate some of her programs and giving her a new mission. Thanks heavens he sent the Bot to watch over Buffy. The conversation between Buffy and the Bot was both humorous and heartbreaking. Let’s hope that what Joyce had to tell Buffy will help her to find her way back to sanity. Thanks for another great chapter!!

Author's Response: Hi Melly! I'm so glad you like the Bot!! I was a little leery about my muse's desire to bring her along, but she really helps keep the angst subdued or countered. I felt sooo badly for Buffy during her convo with the Bot, telling her to love Spike for her. Thank goodness the Bot was there, tho, even if she didn't quite know what to do. We'll see what Joyce's advice and mission will do for Buffy's sanity ... It will be a process. Thanks so much for reading! It's great to have you back!

Wow! Great chapter, you really pulled out the angst here. Poor Buffy, she's just so broken. And the guilt she feels is overwhelming. :( Very creepy that she sees everything covered in blood.

It's good to have the BuffyBot in this ,cause she's just so cute. I liked that Buffy told Spike he deserved Happy Buffy. Still wondering how that 3some thing is gonna come about, cause Buffy sure seems upset at the thought of Spike having sex with the Bot, never mind her too. lol

Loved the Joyce bit at the end and the reveal of poor Dawn trapped in Limbo. Yeah just where the Hell did the monks get Dawn a soul? Souls-R-Us? Never made any sense all that soul crap in the show. I think they just put that in to make Angel a specialpire, who Buffy could love.*blergh*
Anywho I like your explanation better. :) Now to see what happens when Buffy wakes up. How will Spike find her? I guess the Bot knows how to use a phone,;)

Loving it, babes! *smooches*

Author's Response: Hey AMI! I have this vision of Buffy staring down at her hands and them just dripping in blood. I guess my muse must've put it in there, 'cos I can't recall ever seeing that exact scenario on the show. Maybe the closest in Dead Things when she thought she killed Warren's GF, or maybe when she stabbed Faith?... I DK. Anyway, the blood just seemed to cover everything from there. Glad you found it creepy. :)

And her guilt - she was always good at guilt, so I magnified it, as I think she would, for her 'failure' to save Dawn, using how she snapped in Spiral when Glory took Dawn as the starting point and just diving in from there. I wish I could tell you the angst was over, but, alas ... no, there will be more.

My muse really wanted BBot mostly for the threesome - he's such a guy (now THAT'S creepy!). I was dubious at first, but I found her such a delight!! She makes wonderful comic relief too, so I forgive him for making me put her in. :)

I agree with the whole soul issue in canon - such bull! That's probably the only thing they could come up with so they could torture our poor Spikey. I never got how Buffy came up with the 'soulless=heartless' rule exactly - just from ONE example. I mean - ok, maybe at first, but Spike proved himself over and over and STILL she couldn't give him credit. ARGH! And so, we say 'la-la-la-la-la' and fix it!! And yeah, just where did the Monks get Dawn's soul? Or did she have one? That could explain a lot! Annoying little brat. {{oh! Did I say that out loud!? oops}} :)

Yes, we're gonna assume BBot can use the phone or at least someone can help her with it, and leave a message for Spike at the hotel.

And the threesome: It will take a bit to develop, but there is a method behind the madness of it, and it will be Buffy's idea (not that Spike will object). And ... there may be angst involved in there somewhere. Eek! Thanks sooo much for reading and stopping in! I can't tell you how much I love your reviews! I tell PaganBaby all the time how much I miss AMI so I have to write 'side-jobs' just so we can keep in touch! :) That's cool! I was so glad I could talk PB into betaing this for me. She's soo darn busy! RL sucks sometimes. :)

Thanks, hun! Will have more soon. {{hugs}}

Wow, the emotional upheaval in this chapter was crazy. A brilliant job you have done so far. I'm really enjoying this, thankyou.

Author's Response: Thank you so much, TC! My muse is evil (though he's devilishly handsome, so I forgive his evilness) and loves to make me cry. I'm so glad you're enjoying the ride! Will have more soon! Thanks for reading and stopping in here. Look forward to hearing from you again as our heroes continue this journey.

This story is awesome. It's not fluffy, something I tend to prefer, but something about it has me hooked. Thank you for sharing. Post more soon please.

Author's Response: Hey, No, not fluffy by any stretch, although there will be some happier times later. Most of my stories tend to blend tears with some laughs and happy spuffiness in the end. Glad you're enjoying it! I hope you continue to be hooked. :) Thanks for reading and stopping in! Will have more soon.

Wow....that's a very interesting observation you went into with the soul. I like how you tackled that :) Kind of curious where the B/B/S thing will play...I mean...I don't think that's how you make a baby...

Shannon

Author's Response: Hey Shannon! Well, you just never know - it could happen that way with the B/B/S hookup! Ok, probably not really, but we'll get to that later and it will hopefully make sense. Glad you liked the 'soul' theory my muse came up with. Where did the monks get Dawn's soul, anyway?? Thanks so much for reading and stopping in! Hope all is well with you!!

Genius. Wake her up and get her to snog with Spike have her mom tell her too. Perfect.

Author's Response: LOL! Ok, Blue Eyes - you've read enough of my stuff to know it will *NOT* be that easy! :P This made me laugh ... that evil 'muhahahaha' kinda laugh. Thanks so much for reading and stopping in! We will wake Buffy up next and see if there is any snogging to be had ... I mean, you never know, right? 'muhahaha'

I absolutely love this story! and the pictures included give it great imagery as well. I hope you update soon I cant wait for another chapter!

Author's Response: Oh! That's the most awesome thing my muse could hope to hear! Thank you so much!! It means a lot! Glad you like the photos, too. They can take a while to find, so I'm glad they add to the story. Gonna try to update a couple of times a week, so maybe next Tuesday for the next? I'll try for that. Thanks again - love hearing from you, hope you continue to enjoy the story.

Well, that's an original twist!

Author's Response: Hey All4Spike! My muse just had to wonder, with the big deal Buffy makes about Spike not having a soul, where did Dawn get one when she was made from 'scratch.' The monks just had a spare one laying around ? {shrug} I don't know where my muse comes up with this stuff, honestly ... although the idea of souls growing, changing, dying, etc. is an idea introduced by Bob the Skull in the Dresden Files. Credit where credit is due. I just expounded on it a bit. Hope you enjoyed the twist ... Thanks so much for reading and always stopping in!!
